DR 558 Motor Disengaging Mechanism 4 Place the foot control under the cabinet within easy reach of your foot. Rest the right foot on the control pedal and press. The harder you press, the faster the machine will run. On some sewing cabinets, the foot control cord can be passed through the opening in the bedplate extension.
DR 851 Straight Stitching For straight-stitch sewing set: Dial A = 0 Lever B = Center • Control G regulates the stitch length. For detailed instructions please refer to page 18.
DR 851 Zigzag Sewing If you want to switch from straight (A on O”) to zigzag stitching, turn dial A to desired stitch width (indicated by numbers 1 to 4). Lever B changes the position of the needle in the needle plate slot. Thus the stitching can be moved from the center to the left or right of the slot, as desired.

Correct Tension Regu’ation Balanced tensions are essential far sewing. If your tensicn is correct, you will have perfect seams as sketched below (Ill). Sketch I — The threads interlock on the underside of the fabric. C a u s e : Upper tension too loose or lower tension too tight.
Regulating the Thread Tension DR 580 The bobbin thread tension has been set for a medium grade and need not be adjusted for all ordinary sewing operations.
DR 008 Stitch Length Regulation The stitch length control serves to regulate the stitch length and to limit it in sewing backwards. The numbers on the control indicate the stitch length (the higher the num ber, the longer the stitch). When the control is set on “0” the machine ceases feeding.
Changing the Sewing Foot Lift both needle and presser bar to their highest positions and turn sewing foot thumb screw b to the left. Tilt the foot sideways and pull it down. it T Ii DR 866 Reverse procedure to slip on new foot and tighten screw b securely.
DR 855 Dropping the Machine Feed Remove the bed cover and press the drop feed lever down slantwise, then to the rear and up (as indicated by the white arrow). The lever will be retained in this position and the fabric will cease feeding. The machine feed is dropped for darning, hoop embroidery and button sewing.
DR 853 All-Purpose Sewing Foot (with Clear-View Shoe) All-purpose sewing foot No. 93-100 179-00 is attached as instructed on page 19. The transparency of its shoe facilitates all sewing operation where it is important to watch the needle penetrate the fabric.
Care and Maintenance Longevity and smooth machine performance are dependent on regular and proper cleaning and oiling. Use Pfaff sewing machine oil only, Never lubricate machine with animal or vegetable oils. All moving and rotating parts require regular lubrication.
4 There are two openings in the rim of the stitch width dial, one on the left and the other at the back (see arrows). These openings are the oil holes of the zigzag mechanism. Do not lubricate the bobbin winder. The raceway in the sewing hook is the most important oiling point.
Changing the Light Bulb The built-in 15-watt sewing light illuminates the area of stitching perfectly. To change the light bulb, remove the face cover, push the bulb into its socket, turn left, and pull out. When inserting new light bulb, be sure to slide bulb pins into socket slots.

3. Needle Breaks Cause Bent needle strikes point of sewing hook. Needle too thin or thread too heavy. Fabric pulls needle so it bends and strikes needle plate. Bobbin case inserted incorrectly. 4. Faulty Stitch Formation Cause: Improper tension. Thread too heavy, knotty or hard.
6. Machine Works Heavily Cause: Remedy: Hook raceway lacks oil or is obstructed by Clean and oil hook raceway. pieces of thread. Mechanism clogged by inferior oil. Use only Pfaff sewing machine oil — never salad oil or glycerine. Bobbin winder working while sewing.

I Sewing Buttonholes Machine Setting: A = 1 ‘/2 (first notch) B = Stitch Length: Almost 0 (for buttonhole seam) Attach buttonhole foot No. 847 616 and set slide on buttonhole gauge, to buttonhole length desired. The buttonhole is the right length when beginn ing of first seam reaches red end of slide indicator (see arrow).
Instruction for Buttonholing 1 Sew first side over a filler cord. When beginning of seam reaches red end of slide indicator on button hole gauge, it is the right length. Leave needle in fabric on right side of its throw. 2 Lift foot, turn fabric around clockwise, using needle as a pivot.
Triangular Tears Triangular tears are best darned by placing the torn section between hoops and making close stitches across and lengthwise. Move work under the needle with both hands.

DR 058 Spacing between Tucks To ensure uniform spacing between parallel tucks, place the preceding seam into one of the grooves of the foot and use it as a guide. For a larger spacing between tucks, use the adjustable guide (see ill, on page 41) which is part of every cording foot.
DR 059 L -— Ornamental Sewing You can make exciting fashion stitch designs by alternating straight and zigzag stitching, varying stitch length, stitch width or needle position by hand. This will be easy after you have had sufficient practice. Some of the designs you can make are illustrated below.
